Staying in a water bungalow in the Maldives is the top post-lockdown holiday experience that Britons are dreaming about, according to a new survey.
Researchers asked British travel-lovers what they dream most about doing and where as soon as it is possible, and a stay in overwater accommodation in the Maldives archipelago is top of the list for 39 per cent of them. Coming second is seeing the Northern Lights (37 per cent), while third is admiring the pink rocks of the Seychelles (28 per cent).
Making the rest of the top five is enjoying a Greek salad in Santorini (joint fourth, 27 per cent), taking in the Great Pyramids of Egypt (joint fourth, 27 per cent), seeing the Grand Canyon by helicopter (joint fifth, 26 per cent) and hearing the water flowing at Niagara Falls (joint fifth, 26 per cent).

Summer holidays abroad will be lost , warns travel industry Hazel Plush
Travel industry leaders have spoken out in warning that summer holidays will be lost again this year, if ministers prohibit international leisure travel until the entire population is vaccinated.
This morning, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps suggested that international leisure travel may not be permitted until autumn 2021, the deadline by which the Government aims to have offered the vaccine to every UK citizen.
A spokesperson from ABTA – The Travel Association, told Telegraph Travel: If we wait for the full rollout of the vaccination programme in the UK before people start to travel overseas, we’ll lose another summer season to the pandemic – something the travel industry can’t afford.
